Generation Games

Stroud District Council are excited to present The Generation Games; a chance for young and old alike to participate in a variety of sports and activities.

All children and adults participating in the event will have the chance to try a range of alternative activities. In groups of 25-30, participants will rotate around a carousel of activities and will spend 45 minutes on each one.
